LOCAL MAN IS HELD
ON THEFT OF SUIT
New RrunsTvlck. N. J., Oct. 7 ports that a man and woman spoon¬ ing In a lane near the rhillips farm where Rev. Edward Hall and Mr:;. James Mills, his choir leader, were found munlered, witnes.sed part of the mysterious murder, were invcstiguted tonight by authorities.
"Whispered g.i.s.sip" was declared to be re<-i»onslble for investigiition of the roport of those who sjiid they saw a motor car rush up to the si)ot, heard .'.ho's and then saw the car dash away  of^ain.
While the authorities were over¬ looking no bets .and investigatinfr even the .slightest clue, they h;aid they were not cMpettinfr that the reports would lead  to anything tanrible.
After the thots the tpojning couplo I'.unicd to their hoiaes, fearing to laik
t;jvcinor Ed\\-arda today sent an ultimaiuin from Trenton that the lauriit i\i- iif the Rev. i^d-vi'-d W. H.ill ;»ii.l Mr.s. James Mill;, '¦¦adei of the choir of St. John the Evangcii^^t, OiU&t be arrested.
"1 am standing behind this inves¬ tigation," said the chief executive ut tho st.uto cupitol. "Too much time hxs already been lost. I isent Colonel Schv.art::koiif, head of the state con¬ stabulary, to the scene of the crime with oiilera to gel the murderer anil not to come back until he did.
"I want the munlerer arrested ami puaishtd. whoever he is.
"I cNiH-ct^-o. an arn'sl yesterday and am surpri.-ied one has not yet beta ii.ade."
"The drtis-hter of Mrs. Mills wrote r.ie upfieaiiiit; for aid," the Governor said. "The people of the state w.m'. tr.is crime solved; I want it solved and it must be so.vcd no matter \vho i; hurt.s. •
"I <ion't want to see Colon";! Schwartiikor' again until he has ar¬ rested e\c.'y peisou concerned in the crime."
Governor Edward.s a few days ago, sent \.onl (c locil authoritlo:^ th.t and find the%murderer or niurderer.s. and lind I he murderer or munlerors."
Iho C'oveinor's stand follows the con ] laint made by 15 year old Char- li/tie Mills that local probers were not Kiving the case their best efforts.
'lh«; I'irl was tf.kea to task, she Aild, after shu coinjiluined to the Gover¬ nor.
Three weeks have elapsed since the bcKlies of the minister and the wife of the church janitor were found side by side under a ti-ee on the I'hillips farm.
Prosecutor Rtrlckler has stated that no clues have been found as to the person or persons responsible for the crime.
Attorney Pfelfer, counsel for Mrs. Hall, the wealthy widow of the pastor, went to the court house today and registered a hot protest at the method of the pro.secutor's inve.stigation. He 'de.scribed as "kidnapping" the action of the prosecution in taking Willie Steven."^ eccentric brother of Mrs. Hall ,*.o court and quizzing him until this morning. "My client has been within the call of tho authoritie.-? ever since the bodies have been found. But now the prosecutors are acting like a bunch of Turks. Stupidity hav¬ ing failed, they have now taken up ruder methoil.-;.
"Strickler kidnapped Willie Stevens last night. He entered the Hall home and forced bim to go along. It is an. ouinige." \
Seventeen members of the choir of the Church of St. John tho Evangelist were quizzed today on whether they suspected that Rev. Hall and Mrs. : Mills were infatuateel. They .said tjiey had no inkling that an .ffair exi.stcd between them. Prosecutor Strickler siiid he had evidence to prove that the choir members met in the loft of the church after the murder and decided upon the story they would tell if ever questioned.
Yesterday was the last registration day and the voters of the three third- cla.ss .cities of the county, Wilkes- Barre, Hazleton and Pittston respond¬ ed in much more encouraging num¬ bers than on the two previous days set aside for this purpose. Although the figures show a big falling off com¬ pared with la-st year this is not un¬ usual, tho vote In years when ward and city officers are elected being always very heavy.
The returns trom all except one precinct in this city show a total reg¬ istered vote of 13,396, the division be¬ tween the parties being about two Re¬ publicans to every one Democrat The total registered vote in Hazleton City, as compiled by the registrars in that city la-st night, is 5,205. The Repub¬ lican strength is much greater pro¬ portionately in that city, the Repub¬ licans registering three voters to every one registered by the Demo¬ crat!?.
In Pittston, the Gibraltar of Democ¬ racy, the Democrats made a good showing, the returns that could l>e secured up until 2 o'clock this morn¬ ing shouiag more than two Demo¬ crats to every one Republican.
A good part of the falling off since last year is attributed to the indiffer- enee of the women, hundreds of whom were so peeved on account oi" the heavy school taxes levied against them that they refused to listen to the appeals of their leaders to go to tho polls and qualify for the Novem¬ ber election.
Out of the fifty-four districts in this city tho Democrats led in nine, the other forty-five showing a decided Republican    tendency.    In    Hazleton
City   tho  nineteen   districts   report   a Republican   lead.     The  only  ward   in
which the Democrats registered a ma¬ jority of the voters is the Fourth. WUkes-Ilarre City The complete returns from this city,

A forest fire that had raged over 500 acres of timber land was quenched yesterday afternoon at a time when it was menacing the town of Ricketts and the lives and property of 200 inhabitants. The first rainfall in several weeks reduced the blazing woods to smouldering stretches. The postmistress at Ricketts, which is situ¬ ated at the junction of Luzerne, Wyoming and Sullivan counties, telephoned to Sayre shortly before noon that the town was surrounded by forest fires. She said the inhabitants feared for their lives. The Lehigh Valley tracks separated the town from the woods at a point where the flames were the most menacing. Information received last night from residents near Ricketts declared that the first reports had been exaggerated, although it was admitted that calls for help had been sent to neigh¬ boring villages. The Lehigh Valley stationed some men along its property, guarding trestles against advance by the flames. Rain began falling early in the afternoon over the fiery area. It continued until late last night. The downpour ended the fire. The heaviest loser was the Central Pennsylvania Lumber Company, with headr quarters at VVilliamsport, owners of the timber land. Reports were received here of additional fires back of Harve/s Lake and near Hazleton. Twelve* fires broke out in the Scranton district in twenty-four hours ending yesterday at noon. The general rainfall prevented them spreading.

I'lttsburg, by the score of 7 to 0, the same score by which Pitt.sburgh was defeated last year. A fatal fumble by Winterbum, a substitute halflKick, was the direct cau.qe of the downfall, for Leo Prenderga.st, Kafayettc's new tackle, pounced on the ball and dashed more than thirty yards for a touch¬ down.
However, Lafayette outplayed the ITit eleven throughout the game. Lafayette's backflcid worked like a perfect m.achlne. Time and again, Mike Gazella got away for good gains and on the famous double pass whicli Gazella and Brunner work together as no other two backs in the country, many valuable yards were gained. Matt Brennan, I.«ifayette's quarter, who punted, aver.aged at>out sixty yards, sending the heavy, soggy ball over the heads of the Pitt team time and again. It was the greatest dis¬ play of punting ever seen In Pitts¬ burgh. Lafayette weis over anxious early in the game, and lost several op¬ portunities to score by penalties; in addition, lost the ball in the enemy's territory on fumbles on a numl)er of occasions. This was duo to the mud, caused by heavy rain during tho morning, and a drizzle which con¬ tinued during the game.
Lafayette's defense was really won¬ derful. The Pitt juggernaut was ex¬ pected to break down Lafayette's first line of defense, weakened by the lost of three players of last year, but t.he new men were .every bit as good as tho.se they loit. Coach Suther¬ land has drilled the men to the height of their power, and Lafayette is confident of winning every game this .sea.son. and again lining up for the championship of the ca.st.
The story of the game.
Pittsburgh won the to^s and elected to kick oft, Williams booting the ball to Ureiinan who returned it to his own twenty-four yard line on line plunges by Gebhardt and double pas.s, with Ganeida carrying the bail, La¬ fayette gained seven yards. Brennah punted, but Pitt was offside and the l>all was brought back and given to Lafayette for a first down on her own 42 yard line. After unsucce.ssful ef¬ forts to gain a first down, Brennan again punted from the 42 yard line, sending the pigskin to Pltfs fifteen yard line. Plannigan received the ball and" returned it to the thirty yard lino, where he was forced out of bounds. Tom Hollcnm was hurt on the play and was replaced bv Shuler. Pitt could not gain more than five yarfls on her four trials, and Flanni- gan punted only from his 45 >ard line to Lafayette.'s 42 jard line, but Pitt was off side and the ball was brought back and Pitt was penalized. Flannlgan punted from his thirty yard line to Brunner on Lafayette's 35 yard lin^.
.\ double pass, Gazella to Brunner, netted ten yani.s but the ball was brought back, and Lafayette was pen¬ alized fifteen yards. Laf.iyette worke«l the ball to the 41 yard line,  vl>»A
holding ami was .set back fifteen yards. Another double pass, Brun¬ ner to Gazella, netted eighteen yanls, but tiic jinx .still pursued Lafayette and the ball was brought liack and Lafayette penalized 15 yards for hold¬ ing.
It was now linfayette's ball on her own 26 yard line on a double pa.ss, Mike tore oft twelve yards more and then Brimner ma<io two, slipping in the mud. Brennan punted to Shuler on his own 25 yard line, and Berry nailed him after a two yard gain. An¬ derson gained 13 yards around end.

More than one hundred men, who were crowded into the ixirroom of the Hoffman House, a hotel conduct¬ ed by Stanley Lowe at 403 South .Main street, this city, hastily guli>ed their drinks la.st night at 11 o'clock when a band of prohibition agents of C'iiief Harry Williams, reinforced by a squad of State Troopers, raided the place.
Lowe and his bartender, Carl Olson, of 423 Hollen'uaek avenue. Parsons, were placed under arrest on the charge of selling liquor. As a hearing could not be immediately arranged, the two prisoners were placed la the local police station where they were released early this morning under $1,000 bail each for a hearing Monday. A quantity of liquor was confis¬ cated. The enforcemeit men seized 45 quarts of "whiskey," 15 quarts of wine and a gallon jug of liquor. The stuff was lal)eled and sealed at the post  office  building.
The Hoffman House has been un¬ der observation for some months. Chief Williams announced In describ¬ ing the raid. A warrant was pre¬ pared yesterday afternoon. Because of the size of the establishment, State police were asked to aid. Seven troopers under Sergeant Marshall of the Wyoming Barracks responded and these were brigaded with Williams' men.
The raid was timed for 11 o'clock an hour when the barroom was crowded. At least 125 men were in the place, Williams said, when the raiders en¬ tered. Ihey were told to stand their ground, any attempt to escape result¬ ing in arrest. The patrons obeyed the orders and were given a close-up view of what Prohibition men do. There was no disorder. In the end, the scores of customers were allowed to pass out of tho scene without being arrested. Only the proprietor and tho bartender were taken into custody. A Valuable Cargo The prohibition men declared last night they were attempting to dis¬ cover the Intended destination of 15 barrels of high grade alcr'iol valued at $16,000 seized early yesterday morning on the East End boulevard. The stuff was being shipped to local men and represented tho largest con¬ signment of liquor attempted to be smuggled Into the city in months. Some arrests may occur in the next few days.
Chief Williams and J. H. Lewis, a Philadelphia enforcement officer, made the seizure at 4 a, m. Besides taking the 15 barrels, they also confi.scated a Standard 5-ton truck valued at $8,000. Wiiliam Dircks, 58 years old, of 126 River street, Hoboken, N. J., received a fracture of the right leg when the truck was wrecked on the hairpin curve. He Is in City Ho.spital. Thomas Gray, 30 years old, of Charles street. New York City, who v/as acting as pilot and was uninjured, was placed under arrest. a
Chief Williams and Agent Lewis waited in the Poconos Friday night for the truck, having been informed It was enroute. They allowed it to pass and then swung in behind with their own car. In approaching;, the hairpin curve, the driver of the truck lost control. The heavy machine trav¬ eled down the Incline at a sped of 60 miles an hour. It was ditched when the driver was unable to follow the twist in the road.
Cunningham Robs Ruth Of What Should Have Been Certain Home Run Clout
A TEST OF SPIRIT
By IIE:R¥ L. FARREIX
New York, Oct. 7.—With all the punch of McGraw and all the luck that a ball team ever got the New- York Giants came from behind, swept over the Y'ankecs and won their third victory of tho world's series 4 to 3 here this afternoon.
Rain, which fell in a downpour from the first to the last Innin.i?, fairly washed all the breaks into the tide of victory for the National Lciigue champions.
For tho first four Innings and the last four, the vaunted attack of the Giants was chained up by the under¬ hand slants of Carl M.ays, the blonde submarine pitcher of the Yank.s.
It all happened in the fifth inning joa five of the nicest breaks that could have been ordered.
As a starter, Frank Snyder, the big Giant catcher, drove one down to Deacon Scott, the Gibraltar of the Yank infield.   The ball bounded off his

CREASY I.S DOOMED
New York, Oct. 7.—William M. Creasy, convicted of slaying pretty Edith Lavoy, his sweetheart, wept in Sing Sing tonight as his attorneys prepared to appeal his case. Creasy broke down for the flr."5t time when condemned to die In the electric chair Nov. 6. When asked if he had any¬ thing to .say, the Fort Thomas, Ky., man had maintained a dogged bravado and ad;nitted himself a seeker of fem¬ inine hearts, gave way to tearful waatioa.
shoulder into the center field. Hugh McQuillan, McGraw's latest purchase from the Boston bargain counter, then put a double down the left field line.
Hitting the first ball pitched, Dave Bancroft .'-ent an easy chanci to Ward. Ag:iin the ball bounded and got away ft-qm him, scoring Snyder and McQuillan.
Groh stepped up and bunted down tho first base line. The ball bounced off Mays' glove. I'ipp grabbed the ball and nearly got Groh.
Frisch scored Bancroft with a sac¬ rifice fly and Groh came in later on a lucky single by Irish Meusel.
Just as suddenly as it started, the epidemic of breaks stopped : .id the Giants were held .safe by Mays and Sam Jenes, who went In to pitch the ninth inning after Mays had been taken out for a pinch hitter. A Good Start Acting as if they had shed the bat¬ ting slump which hns held them al¬ most helpless in the .series, the Yanks climbed on McQuillan in the first in¬ ning and scored two runs.
Witt, Dugan, Pipp and Meusel singled and pushed over a co'iplo of runs that looked fine for a .starter. McQuillan made tho mistake In serv¬ ing the Yanks with higli bi'.Ils on which they had feasted. When they came out for the second inning he started placing the nuiround the knees and tho Yankees started swinging. They continued swinging tic rest of the game.
Chances for victory or a tie In the ninth inning were ruined by the fool¬ ish base running of Wally Hchan.T, tho Yank catcher. I'ipp, whose slu.i?- ging stoppc'l when the series started, opened the last fi-ime with a two bag¬ ger. He was run down between second and thin! on Bob Mcusel's infield roller. Schang then hit down the left field foul line and foolishly tried to make two bases. He was thrown out by a mile. Ward officially killed the chance by flying out to ieft Bad Day For Oatue De.spite the drizzling rain which fell at intervals all morning, the bleachers arid the stands were packed with close to a capacity crowd. The haze of autumn, a fog from the Harlem River and the sombre blanket of a gray clouded .sky made it .so dark Ju.st be¬ fore game time that it seemed almost impossible to play.
The drizzle turned Into a steady down-pour but the umpires started tho game and made the athletes vkork all the way through. Considering the heavy footing and the handicap of handling a wet Ijall, the play was fast and perfect. Except for a bad throw by Snyder to get Meusel stealing in the first innin,g, the defense of the Giants was perfect.
The Yanks played errorle.ss ball as they did in the previous three games^ but their attack lacked punch, as it has lacked it all during the series. Their, morale seemed to Ije shattered and their heart showed symptoms of weakness.
With three victories to none for the Yank.s, the Giajits are in the position of overwhelmmg favorites to win the championship. Huggins has failed to win a game and has used his three best pitchers. McGraw has his two best pitchers ready to go back and he has only one more game to win.
While no official announcement had been made it was considered almost certain that the Giants would work behind Art Nehf, their southpaw star, tomorrow, -with Joe Bush doing the burling for the Y'anka.
Overwhelming odds were being of¬ fered tonight on the Giants in betting circles, both that McGraw will win the (Continued on Page 22)

Polo  Grounds,   N.   Y.,   Oct.   7.—The sea of soup that was the scUing for this fourth game of the current  tltio., tilt of baseball was a vale of tears for Yankee supporters to^lay.
Those of the thirty thousand mud¬ larks who s.at beneath umbrellas and newspapers through the nine watery innings this afternoon saw the Hug- men humbled, if ever a ball team waa.
Off to a corking start with two runs tucked away before the scoreboard had done with the first frame, ther Yanks let themselves be Ignomlnlously licked.
The Giants were out there fighting against low visibility and the sub¬ marine service of Carl Mays but it was Yankee ingenuity that a.ssisted across the four big and sufficient C^ant counter^.
The fighting spark that Invests tho McOraw clan refused to be dampened by a steady downpour that persisted throughout the fourth world's series game. It flared up in the fifth for four runs, enough to wln.
The Yanks appeared to have some¬ thing In the first, but It was an er¬ ror to ijclleve .<?o. I'"or the American Leagr.n chami ions hadn't a thing to sliow after that first inning.
Ward busted a lonely homer, after Meusel had failed to run out a hit in the seventh, but it was a futile effort that did no good.
In the first Inning, Hugh McQuil¬ lan's -fast one was coming up like a iKilloon about shoulder high and what Used to i)e known as "murderers' row" iwlished off the delivery with clean punches to left and right for two runs.
Down in the Giant dug out. Jawn McGraw set his jaw and said noth¬ ing at all. When the Yanks were due at bat in the second, McQuillan was still on the hill and from then on had the Hugmen very much in his moist palm.
.After the opening ses-sion, the pea soup atmosphere provcl to be duck soup for. the Giants. They splashed about, grabbing off brilliant fielding chances all over the place. The Yanks seemed not to like the going.
Ot' course, f<"- the first four in- nlnp-s, after they had their lead, the Yankees were in a great hurry to reach the all Important second half of the fifth before the umpires could call the game. They hurried through their turns at bat, giving McQuillan plenty of time to get his feet firmly back on the wet ground.
The Giant.s, be it .naid to their credit, did little stalling. Once or twice with an eye to the sky, they seemed to l>o delaying matters as much as possilile in hopes of a downpour that would end tho game bcfo.'-e the four and a half innings that would make the game legal could be played. But. along about their half of the fifth, the McGrawmen decided to double-crosa the Yanks and win the old ball game anyhow.
How Game Was Played
The Gi.ints started out dangerously when Bancroft led off with a single in the first inning. Mays rallied, how¬ ever .and got the side on two Infield outs and a fiy.
The Yanks .started off nuspiclou.sly also in the first inning when they scored two nins on singles by Witt, Pipp and Meu.sel.
Bill Cunningham, the Giant center- fielder, robbed B.'il>e Kuth of a homer when he ran back to the centr»fteld wall and pulled <iown the most sensa¬ tional catch of the series.
Little action occurred in the sixth inning. Mayj. got the first two Giants up. walked Cunningham and then re¬ tired the side. The Yanks went out in order.
Mays started to wobble again in the third when he pa.sse<l Bancroft, but Ruth s;!ved him by making a sen.sa- tional running catch off Fri.sch for the third out. Ruth got on base in the Yanks siilc of the third but the rest of the side retired In order.'
With Irish Meu.sei out in the fourth innmg. Young singled but was forced at second bv Kelly. Cunningh..m fin¬ ished the side by forcing Kelly at sec¬ ond. The Yanks went out easily in three straight.
The Giant Rally
Snyder .started tho big Giant rally in the fifth with a single through Scott. McQuillan put him on third with a double down the left field foul line. Bancroft .scored both of them with a freak single and Heinle Groh singled off Mays' g!ove. Fri.sch push¬ ed them both around a bas>? with a sjicrifice. Bancroft scorwi on Metisel'i infield out and Groh moved up to third. Young drove In Groh with • (Continued on I^ige 22)
